Apparently, they do scam calls to record your voice when you answer. Using that sound, they can recreate your voice and call others that know you to scam them.

Such a dangerous time for trust and security.

Didn't make the cut:

Automatic emergency braking

Collision avoidance system

Multi zone climate system

Automatic highbeams

Keyless entry

Low tire pressure (that also says WHICH tire)

Automatic defrost

What consumers DON'T want:

Seat belt non use warning noises

Run flat tires

Lane drift systems

And the perennial favorite that will never change: Fast charging ports for EVERY device EVERYWHERE in the car

How much power would it take to hack bitcoin?

There are quantum computers online for a fee. if the payoff is big enough, someone could try to hack bitcoin. It's obvious the government can, so I would think... it's possible.

Quantum computers are a new generation of computers that are many times faster than traditional super computers.

Secondly, where do people go to get education/degrees in quantum computing?

This is a question targeting primarily those, who have or use an iPhone.

in order to not taint the incoming posts, i will refrain from saying whether i would recommend and iPhone or not. For this time.

How many emails do you get a day? Personal or Business? What do you do with them?

Please vote in the poll, and tell us about your emails.

FYI... I probably get around 50 personal emails a day, most of them junk, which I usually delete without reading them.

Or have you used both or switched or whatever. Have you settled on one yet. I'm a settler for Android phones. I love them. I never had an iPhone, yet I used other apple products. There's supposedly a thing for American women to prefer iPhone/apple, and in similar countries UK, Australia, NZ, Canada, apparently. Apparently. Yet more so USA, "the iPhone is Queen" in terms of female users lol 👑 ♀️apparently.

And why lol 💳 please.

I hear it and i read it all the time so many talking about how they have a cellphone they don't need a CB radio. They point out how they can contact anyone in the world with their cellphone they can share photos to their relatives and friends even on the other side of the world. They can do transactions play games and even do videos and print from their cellphone. And so why should they have something like a CB radio. So why you ask? It can be summed up in 4 words (The Internet Kill Switch), search that up. CB radios all work well even the cheapest CB radios the $50 dollar ones with a good antenna that is such as a K30 or Tram 300 for mobile antenna or the 5/8 high gain antenna for base roughly $150.

When the power goes out CB radios go right on working and that is because CB's transmit by antennas and their transmissions are received by all other CB antennas with in reach. CB radios are cheap they need no license to operate and once bought it never again cost a dime to use it. They are easy to install too and where all other form of communication will and do fail CB radios go right on working they will not.

Given all the facts above for those who have invested so much confidence in their cellphones who think CB radios are lacking and pointless, does any of the above chance your mind?

What modern invention would you like to never have been invented?
